It's my Birthday! It's my Birthday!

I have to say, 32 was a good year for me. My first novel was released in both digital format and print by Lyrical Press. I had a piece published in a world-renown anthology series, Chicken Soup for the Soul, and also a small local anthology about my hometown, Voices from the Herd. I signed contracts for two other stories with Lyrical Press. I took not only one, but two trips to my favorite place on earth, Walt Disney World, one of which was a much needed alone trip with hubby! I attended my first ever writer's conference and met a ton of fantastic people.

And now I am 33 (well, not yet...I believe the exact time was 3:31 pm.) I wonder what this next year will hold for me. I know what I'd like it to hold.....more writing success including more contracts and the attention of an agent!

Nicole, I was craving some BBQ. I decided to try a place we've never been, though I did have their homemade mac n cheese at the Taste of Buffalo several times and I love it. The pulled pork was not to my liking, but the mac n cheese made up for it. Don't think we'll go back though...it was kinda pricey and the meats weren't really to our liking.
